Chapter 062: Still Useful
By water, the advance of the coalition forces was very fast, and in less than twenty days, the forward troops set foot on the ground of Togi Province.
Intimidated by the proud achievements of the Huainan Army, the coalition forces that fought in the vanguard, after getting off the ship, did not leave, but built a large number of buildings and fortifications at the wharf.
Du Ji received the information and said with a wry smile: "We fought too hard before, and the coalition forces were all frightened by us, so they could actually think of taking it step by step." ”
Yi Fei was also at the Duji headquarters, and said with a smile: "This is better, those soldiers of mine need time to train, the later they come, the stronger our combat effectiveness will be." ”
"So what are we going to do now?" The chief of staff humbly asked for advice.
"Don't do anything, recharge your energy, prepare for a big battle, no matter how many troops they have, they can't stay together all the time, as long as they are dispersed, our opportunity will come." Yi Fei said confidently.
Du Ji was also infected by Yi Fei's calmness, "Didn't you say that the enemy is stationed in me to disturb me, do you want to send troops to harass me?" ”
"No, harassment now doesn't make much difference. However, our intelligence work must be done carefully, this is the magic weapon to win, the ancestors have said, know yourself and know the enemy, a hundred battles will not be defeated. ”
Du Ji suddenly remembered the tank captured by Yi Fei, "Xiao Fei, you got so many tanks and armored vehicles back, can you give us some points, now the coalition forces have no tanks and armored vehicles, if our armored troops appear in front of them, they will definitely be devastating and overwhelming!" ”
Yi Fei smiled: "Don't think about it, even if I give it to you, can you find someone to use?" Even if I give you a trained armorer, where are you going to supply them? And the use of armored troops. Together, the effect is good, if scattered. It's just some artillery that can run away on their own. ”
Du Ji originally thought that Yi Fei would be able to divide an armored division out, but Yi Fei blocked the words behind him, so he could only stop talking.
Ma Tao asked tentatively: "Do you want to give them an armored cluster assault in Daweng Town and crush the enemy in one fell swoop?" ”
Yi Fei was a little surprised, Ma Tao, a rough man, actually thought of such a tactic. This is the essence of armored group warfare.
However, now Yi Fei doesn't want the armored army to appear, "This battle, our armored army." Is it that they can't participate in the war, the soldiers can't even drive their cars steadily, and their cannons can't shoot accurately, so they pull them out to show jokes to the coalition forces or to be a target? ”
"And how are you going to fight?" Du Ji was also a little confused. Although Yi Fei said the overall combat idea. He still couldn't figure it out.
"Lord Steward, we should have asked you about this, why did you ask me?" Yi Fei quipped.
"The manager of the fart, Lao Tzu has been fighting for so many years, and tens of thousands of brothers have been killed and injured, if it weren't for my fate, I could be the manager? Anyway, now the Ministry of War doesn't care about us, I'll give you this official hat now! Du Ji said annoyedly.
Yi Fei asked in surprise: "The military department doesn't care about us." And what about our military salaries? Oh yes. And my bounty! ”
"There is no bounty, and now I am still worried, where will the salary of the Huainan Army come from in the future." Du Ji said depressedly.
Seeing Yi Fei's puzzlement, the chief of staff smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think we are rich because the chief manager gave you half a year's military salary at one time?" That's when the governor took out all the money and paid half a year's salary and your bounty in advance, so that you could teach the coalition forces a good lesson during these six months, and it was best to fight them directly to surrender. ”
Yi Fei was stunned, "You think I'm an immortal, half a year, it's difficult to destroy the enemies on the land of the empire, what's more, it's impossible for people to have no backup, half a year later, there is no military pay, the soldiers have run away, what do I fight with?" ”
Yi Fei already knew the current situation, but he still wanted to confirm Du Ji's thoughts again.
Du Ji sighed, "What else, let's do our best, anyway, the country is the emperor, how he wants to toss, we can't care!" ”
"But it's our people who are suffering!" Yi Fei continued to stimulate him.
"What can I do, in the past, we could only barely hold on, and the military department still paid the military salary on time, but after winning the battle, they didn't care about us. My telegram of good news has been lost in the sea until now, and I am afraid that there is no hope for the military salary in the second half of the year. Those bastards in the military department have always used us as cannon fodder, but they are afraid that we will become bigger, so they won a battle and began to guard against us. Du Ji complained angrily.
Yi Fei suddenly laughed, "The military department won't be so stupid, I guess our reward will come down soon." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Yi Fei's words surprised both Du Ji and the chief of staff.
Yi Fei walked to the map, pointed to the map and said: "You see, the current situation, Henan Province and Huainan Province have fallen, among them, the remnants of Henan Province have retreated to Hebei Province, and the remnants of Huainan Province have also gone to Shannan East Road. Hebei Province is occupied by the coalition forces and poses little threat to the coalition forces, but our Dugi Province is different, and the enemy forces are in the middle of the two routes. If we are not resolved, the coalition forces will not be able to attack Shannam Dong Province and Hadong Province in a big way and threaten Gyeonggi Province. ”
The chief of staff nodded and muttered: "In this way, we are still useful, no matter how stupid the people in the military department are, they will not give up on us, the gatekeepers." ”
As he was talking, he heard the shouts outside, "The Divine Decree has arrived!" ”
Yi Fei turned around and left, "I don't want to kneel down to people, you go and receive the reward, anyway, now I'm a civilian, and I'm not qualified to see Qincha." ”
As Yi Fei expected, the Qincha not only brought rewards, but also the military salary for the second half of the year, but only the military salary of 200,000 regular troops.
The Ministry of War did not approve Du Ji's report on the expansion of the army, but only agreed to Du Ji's expansion of the local armed forces. , but the equipment and military salaries must be solved by themselves.
This great victory in Dougi Province not only greatly shocked the coalition forces, but also focused on the use of troops in Torigi Province.
Datang Gyeonggi is also very shocking. When did the local armed forces become so powerful? You must know that in the early days of the war, Datang's 3 million army was also vulnerable in front of the coalition forces, and the battle loss ratio was at least 200 to 1.
How could it be possible to annihilate the enemy's 400,000 army at once? The first reaction of the military department was that Du Ji, a ruffian, was lying about the military situation.
After many verifications and confirmation that Togi Province did not lie about its military exploits, the military officials were divided into two factions.
One faction advocated adding officials to Du Ji and letting him command more troops, while the other faction advocated suppressing Du Ji and preventing local forces from growing.
However, both factions have a consensus that the army that cannot yet infect the province of Togi has been wiped out by the coalition forces, so there is the current holy decree. (To be continued......)
